The Story Continues: Announcing Version 14 of Wolfram Language and Mathematica

Stephen Wolfram

The function Map takes a function f and “maps it” over a list: Comap does the “mathematically co-” version of this, taking a list of functions and “comapping” them onto a single argument: Why is this useful? As an example, one might want to apply three different statistical functions to a single list. is PositionSmallest.

Launching Version 12.3 of Wolfram Language & Mathematica

Stephen Wolfram

has a very flexible way of representing its results, that allows for different numbers of variables, different numbers of solutions, etc. &#10005. Tree takes two arguments: a “payload” (which can be any expression), and a list of subtrees. Things get even more complicated if we want to get precise times in astronomy.

Launching Version 13.1 of Wolfram Language & Mathematica ??????

Stephen Wolfram

You can give Threaded as an argument to any listable function, not just Plus and Times : &#10005. we’re adding SymmetricDifference : find elements that (in the 2-argument case) are in one list or the other, but not both. If one’s doing something like astronomy, this kind of “physical” date computation is probably what one wants.

But he had a second hypothesis too—based, he said, on the ideas of “that most ingenious gentleman, Monsieur Descartes”: that instead air consists of “flexible particles” that are “so whirled around” that “each corpuscle endeavors to beat off all others”.
